No.
Processing a certificate of eligibility typically takes between two weeks and three months. If yours is processed within the validity of your tourist visa, then you will be able to apply for a "change of status of residence" within Japan and without leaving th country. Otherwise, you would either have to extend your stay as a tourist or leave Japan once.
